It depended on who I was fishing with. If I was fishing with my citified friends, we'd find a shady spot, set up our rods on rod holders, drown a few worms, fire up the transistor radio and just throw back a few cold ones and wait until the fish told us they were ready to be brought in. If I was fishing with my dye in the wool, southern fried bassin buddies the strongest drink we had in the boat or during the fishing was Dr. Pepper. We'd come in for lunch, rest and get back out on the water. If anyone had a few drinks during lunch, that was it for him for the rest of the day. That person would have to fish from the shore cause he would not be allowed back in the boats for that day. All our drinking was done after dinner after all chores for the day were done and everything was ready for the next day's fishing. It kept everyone safe and no one had a problem sitting out for the rest of the day. We had one guy in our newest group he would bring gallons of liquor and beer with him. It was a drinking trip for him. He might fish a couple of hours a day, it that much. He spent most of his time in the lodge drinking. Not my idea of a fishing trip.

I don’t usually drink when I fish. But my one buddy that I go with sometimes will bring a pint and a 12 just for him. This means that he will usually put a rod holder in the ground and just sit there. Haha one time though we were shore fishing at a spot with a ledge about 3 feet or so off the water and he did get a little too close to the edge. Needless to say I think all the fish in that area were scared off for a while. But I did get a good laugh out of it.

Well I used to be a life guard so he would have been fine. But it was pretty funny. I really don’t understand why he feels the need to get wasted when we go out fishing. But at least I win a couple bucks here and there from whatever bet we might make.  Though I am a little worried because I kayak fish and this year he wants to get a kayak and go out with me. Which is a different story because I would be real mad if I had to bail out of my kayak if he had a problem. So we’ll see I might have to make a rule up that if he is going to go out with me he can’t bring booze with him.

Happy Fishing
